1st what size of thank you want? nano 1feet, 2feet, 3 feet, 4 feet?

then will choose the filtration system? hang on back (for nano), canister for bigger tank size

lighting that depend on what type of plant you want to plant in your tank and the size of your tank...Fluorescent lighting(PLL, T5, PL), halogen, Metal Halide Lighting...need to consider the Wattage, Lumens and Kelvin Rating

    * Low lighting-Cryptocorynes, Java Fern, Java Moss
    * Medium lighting-Sagittaria, Echinodorus
    * High lighting-Cabomba, Salvinia, Lemma

CO2 system...if have the cash get a pressurized CO2 with electric regulator (RM300-400) or cheaper method is DIY CO2...but cant handle high demand plant

Substrate...ADA product+ADA 5 beauties or Holland sand (cheaper way)

Fertilizer...root fert and liquid fert for the leaf

Temperature...no money can DIY cooling fan with PC casing fan+adapter or buy a chiller...plant stay healthy at range 25 degree to 28 degree...or get a air con for it like some sifu does hehehe...

scraping materiel...driftwood (mangrove root/jati wood), stone (lava stone and all sort of it...)

scraping style...Dutch style, Nature Aquarium (or Japanese) style, Iwagumi-style or own style...

fauna...fish? shrimp? snail?

flora...foreground/mid ground/back ground

so many things nid to consider ar -______-"
